Speaking of which, Wei Zheng has been in poor condition recently. A while ago, he could stay in the tunnel during the day and return to the surface at night. However, in recent days, the wind in the city has become more and more serious. He must stay in the tunnel for twelve hours a day and live all day long. Living without seeing the light of day is really frustrating!
What's worse is that Ye Fashan, Li Yu, and Ye Minglei's family also moved into the tunnel yesterday. Wei Zheng suddenly felt that the air down there was getting stuffier!
At this moment, Wei Zheng was feeling a little groggy (the old man was suffering from hypoxia), and suddenly he heard Feng Wu's shouts coming from the tunnel entrance, the dry well in the yard.
After hearing this, Wei Zheng was shocked at first, and then became furious. He walked angrily to the mouth of the well, and said righteously: "How can you betray the country and surrender to the enemy when you are deeply favored by the country?"
He was an upright person. After hearing that Feng Wu and others had committed treason, his first thought was not to escape for his life, but to persuade Feng Wu to return from his lost way!
Liu Rengui, who was still on the ground, couldn't help but cover his face when he heard the bad conversation coming from the ground. It's so shameful. It's so shameful to have such a single-minded subordinate!
Helpless, in order to prevent Feng Wu from getting darker and darker, he could only take three steps and two steps at a time, quickly came to the mouth of the well, and jumped down.
"Wei Zuocheng, don't get me wrong, don't listen to old Feng's nonsense, Liu will tell you the whole story right now!"
Before Feng Wu could continue to speak, Liu Rengui came over and answered first.
If Lao Feng, a fool like him, were to continue talking, wouldn't Wei Zheng be thinking of friendly troops as enemies?
"You? Are you Liu Canjun?"
Wei Zheng looked horrified, because the man in front of him had a beard and a hideous scar on his face, which was really scary. However, he could still distinguish Liu Rengui's voice, so he was surprised.
"Um, yes, it's Liu. In the morning, Liu was worried about being recognized by the county clerk Wang, so he dressed up in disguise."
Liu Rengui then remembered that his current face had been "processed" and quickly explained.
"Puch!"
Xiao Yu'er walked over at this time, looked up and down, and couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Liu, you don't look like an officer or soldier now, you are clearly... a bandit!"
"Pfft! Hehe!"
Lao Feng couldn't hold it back and finally laughed out loud.
Liu Rengui turned his head and glared at the tough guy. Old Feng shivered in fright and immediately covered his mouth.
After Liu Rengui glared at Lao Feng, he then turned to look at Wei Zheng and told them exactly what they saw and heard when they went to the school grounds this morning, as well as what happened when they were forcibly recruited by Huang Cheng.
"Brother Liu, if your identities are exposed, wouldn't you be in danger?"
Ye Fashan also lives in the tunnel. After listening to Liu Rengui's story, he said with worry on his face.
Liu Rengui smiled easily and said: "Brother Ye, don't worry. Although the names we use are fake, the certificates we carry are all signed by our governor personally, so no one can see the flaws!"
Ancient road guides and customs clearance documents were similar to later passes, rather than tourist visas. In different dynasties, its names were different. In the Han and Tang Dynasties, it was called "Guosu", in the Yuan Dynasty, it was called "Wenyin", and in the Ming Dynasty, it was called "Wenyin" and "Lu". According to ancient laws, when residents travel far away (such as doing business, traveling, visiting relatives) and entering and exiting Guanjin, they need to check their passes. If they do not have a pass, they will not only be denied permission, but will also be arrested and punished. Even if travelers are staying in a different place, they still need to check their accommodation.
The application procedure for a transitional residence in Tang Dynasty is very complicated: first, the applicant must hire a guarantor, explain the purpose and time limit of the trip to Li Zheng at the place of residence, and ask Li Zheng to submit an ultimatum to the county government; After receiving the ultimatum, the applicant will be reviewed. Those who have not completed their service period or have committed crimes are not allowed to apply for transfer. After the county government passes the review, it will submit the ultimatum to the Hucao of the state government for approval. After the Hucao verifies that everything is correct, the applicant can be granted a residence permit.
Liu Rengui and the two hundred or so people lied and claimed that they were helping a boss from Bianzhou to transport goods in Guancheng County. Naturally, they had to show their innocence. But with their backing to the Bianzhou Governor's Office, they had already arranged for fake residences and fake identities before coming here. How could the Guancheng County government find out?
"The question now is, if we go to work for Pan Zhenyue, wouldn't we be helping the emperor? What's more, when tomorrow comes, Pan Zhenyue may lead his troops to attack Luoyang. Do we really want to help him attack the city then?"
Liu Rengui looked at Wei Zheng worriedly and said.
"Hahahaha~! God bless the Tang Dynasty! God bless the Tang Dynasty!"
What no one expected was that Wei Zheng suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed uncharacteristically.
"Wei Zuocheng? Wei Zuocheng? Are you okay?"
Liu Rengui thought that Wei Zheng had gone insane after hearing the bad news. He quickly shook Wei Zheng's arm, trying to wake him up.
"Haha! I'm fine! I'm fine!"
Wei Zheng looked at Liu Rengui with joy on his face and said: "Liu Canjun, it's time for you to serve the court and the Tang Dynasty. Now that Ye Xian Cheng is wanted by the whole city, we have one less person to get information from the county government. Channel, but I never expected that you would be in such a situation!
This is a good opportunity, a perfect opportunity to sneak into the rebels! Liu Canjun, you and your people are within the rebel army. Not only can you inform me about the rebel movement, but you can also unite the people within the rebel army who do not want to rebel against the imperial court. When the imperial army arrives, we can cooperate internally and externally. Even if The rebels are numerous and can be disintegrated in an instant! ! "
It has to be said that a famous minister through the ages is a famous minister through the ages. In addition to being able to troll people, Wei Zheng is also far better than anyone in this tunnel in terms of strategy and calculation! It was a dead end that was not good for them a moment ago, but after he said this, it immediately came to life!
"I see, Wei Zuocheng is so wise, I will admire him!"
Liu Rengui's eyes lit up, and then he asked worriedly: "Then if Pan Zhenyue sends troops to attack Luoyang tomorrow, how should the general and others deal with themselves?"
Wei Zheng twirled his beard, suddenly smiled mysteriously, and said: "Huh! They won't be able to attack Luoyang tomorrow. Just relax, Liu Canjun! Now you should seize the time to make good preparations, and then go directly to the state camp to report. Remember, You must be careful and don’t expose yourself!”
Liu Rengui looked confused, thinking why Pan Zhenyue couldn't beat Luoyang tomorrow? But seeing that Wei Zheng didn't want to elaborate, he didn't ask further. He clasped his fists and bowed, "General, I will be careful, so I'll say goodbye~!"
After that, he took Feng Wu and left the tunnel.
"Joining the army, why does Wei Zuocheng conclude that Pan Zhenyue will not be able to defeat Luoyang tomorrow?"
Climbing out of the dry well, Old Feng said with a confused look on his face.
"You ask me? Who should I ask? Also, what were you laughing at just now, Lao Feng? Huh?"
Liu Rengui turned to look at Feng Wu with a very unkind tone.
"Uh! Well, Liu Canjun, how about I go down and stay for a while? It's cool down there!"
Feng Wu swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but secretly move his feet towards the wellhead.
"Come back! Go back to your house and clean up. We will go to the military camp in a moment!"
Liu Rengui knew that now was not the time to make a fuss, so he said angrily, then turned and left.
"Oh oh oh!"
Lao Feng felt relieved and quickly followed.
……………………
"We are soldiers under Huang Shenjun, and we are here to report."
Around midnight in the afternoon, although it was still a long time before dark, Liu Rengui had already brought two hundred brothers to the camp to report. The guards at the camp gate stopped them, and Liu Rengui explained aloud.
"May I have your name?"
a guard asked expressionlessly.
"Come back to Master Jun, my name is Ren Daniu! These people all came with me."
Liu Rengui said with a flattering smile.
Another guard next to him opened a book. After searching for a moment, he said: "Ren Daniu, I heard Huang Canjun talk about you. You guys all belong to the Ninth Battalion. Go in and find the Ninth Battalion." Captain Ji from the camp is reporting!"
"Yes! Thank you, thank you!"
Liu Rengui cupped his fists and said thank you, and then led Lao Feng and others into the camp.
In the early Tang Dynasty, the army followed the "mansion army system". Based on farmers under the equal land system, 634 military offices were set up in key areas of various roads, prefectures, and counties across the country. They were collectively called Zhechong Prefecture. They were divided into upper, middle, and lower grades according to the size of the establishment. The chief of the government was Zhechong Duwei. (Positive fourth grade), deputy chiefs Zuo and You Guoyi are captains, and below the captains, there are those who join the army. There is a regiment (also called a battalion) under the government, with an official school captain, a team under the regiment, and a team leader, and a team under the team, with a team leader. Each battalion has five teams, and each team has three groups. Each group has five captains, and each group has ten men.
Cui Quan, who was at the swearing-in meeting before, was the captain of Zhechong Mansion in Zhengzhou and the highest military officer of the camp.
"See Lieutenant Ji!"
Arriving at the Ninth Battalion, under the leadership of the messenger, Liu Rengui finally met Ji Zhongsheng, the captain of the Ninth Battalion, a middle-aged man with a sinister appearance and a mustache.
"Oh! Are you Ren Daniu? Not bad, not bad. It looks like you guys can fight quite well. Not bad! From now on, you will be the fifth brigade of our ninth battalion. You will be the opponent of the fifth brigade! We will fight in the future. Be brave for me, that will be good for you and me, you know?"
Ji Zhongsheng stood up, walked to Liu Rengui, looked up and down, and then shouted.
Liu Rengui frowned secretly, because Captain Ji in front of him smelled of alcohol, and he had obviously drank a lot before he came.
Drinking is prohibited in the army, but as a captain, this man was so unscrupulous. This shows how lax the military discipline in Zhechongfu Camp in Zhengzhou is!
"Thank you for your support, Mr. Xiaowei. I know many wealthy businessmen in Bianzhou. I will present two jars of pure divine wine to Mr. Xiaowei in the future to repay your support!"
Since this guy likes to drink, it is natural that Liu Rengui should give in to him. As for whether military discipline is lax, does it have anything to do with him? He wished that this camp was all loose!
